Oxalis deppei

Used some quick lateral thinking here! Well, Johnny Depp does play Jack Sparrow in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies! Was also attracted by the "Garden treasures" logo, lol! Unfortunately, my Google searches so far have only pointed to the actor, but no explanation for the deppei suffix.

Believe it or not, I actually got that one right away....I surprised myself!

I'm sure they will be very pretty ....

David, this year have got some bulbs of this plant. Planted them tree weeks ago, growing well and very lovely!
Have a thought as for the ethymology of the suffix "deppei" in the name of this plant. There was a german naturalist, Ferdinand Deppe, who travelled to Mexico. Isn't it a clue? - because Oxalis deppei is from Mexico! :) Just my thoughts...Hope this info help you...:)

I also have these bulbs growing....sorry David, i didnt associate them with your theme.....I wouldnt mind but i LOVE Cpt. Jack Sparrow....:>)

. :-D) Lauram and Motinot.

Many Thanks for this info, Uma. I think you are right, will investigate this route further. :-))

Bargain sir!!

Methink so, too, Dan. All planted now, so will watch and see!
